How to assemble a 0409 box
- Lay the die-cut blank flat on a clean surface.

- Bring the side panels inward into position.
- Fold and lock the closing sections as designed.
- Place your product inside if packing during assembly.
- Finish folding the remaining panels to complete the box.
The exact folding method can vary slightly depending on the design, but the main advantage of this style is quick and straightforward assembly.
How to measure the box
Boxes are normally measured in this order: Length x Width x Height.
Length
The longest side of the box opening.
Width
The shorter side of the box opening.
Height
The distance from the top of the box to the bottom.
For custom box orders, measurements are usually based on the internal size. This means the usable space inside the box so your product fits properly.
Board strength explained simply
The right board grade depends on the weight of your product, how fragile it is, and how the box will be used in storage or transit.
Single Wall
Single Wall board is suitable for many lighter to medium-weight products and works well for general retail and e-commerce packaging.
Double Wall
Double Wall board is thicker and stronger, making it a better choice for heavier items or products needing extra protection.
Stronger custom options
For more demanding products or shipping conditions, stronger board grades may be available to improve durability and support.
